Table 4.

Classification results of breast cancer using four-star miRNAs in comparison with other sets of miRNAs in the literature, as well as the results of one-star miRNAs. The four-star results are sorted according to average prediction accuracy. From other studies only those four-star miRNAs, for which expression data was available, are included.
